Doctor Who Mad Libs Cover Released

The cover for the Doctor Who edition of the popular US game Mad Libs has been released. For anyone who doesn’t know what Mad Libs is here is a basic explonation. Mad Libs consist of a book that has a short story on each page with many key words replaced with blanks. Beneath each blank is specified a lexical or other category, such as “noun“, “verb“, “place”, or “part of the body”.One player asks the other players, in turn, to contribute some word for the specified type for each blank, but without revealing the context for that word. Finally, the completed story is read aloud. The result is usually comic, surreal and somewhat nonsensical. The book will be released on the 11th of September to tie in with the new series of Doctor Who. You can preorder the book from Amazon here .
